Versailes
Headed off later in the day for Versailles as it is not that far from camp. Discovered that the palace closed at six but it was a cold and clear evening and the gardens were to remain open, free entry, till seven.
 |
| Not a bad park |
 |
| The Palace is extensive |
 |
| Former administration buildings across the way |
 |
| Through the gold gates into this exquisiteness |
 |
| Walk round the left of the Palace to the gardens. This is looking from the gardens |
 |
| Three major fountains down to the lake |
 |
| Raven or Rook, maybe a Jackdaw, possibly a crow? |
 |
| Fountain of Latona |
 |
| Apollon Fountain looking toward the Grand Canal |
 |
| Bassin de Flore (1672-1679) |
 |
| Amazing moat to give a clear view from the Palace |
